How to use this calendar

Of course, first of all you can:

choose a date and find out in which comuni (municipalities) there are celebrations for the patron saint. To change month, click the right or left arrows at the top, then click the saint’s name to see details and a link to a map and to the description page. Click the link and read the page about the comune and its patron saint. As an example, see 1st May, Saint Ephisius, or 27 September, Saints Cosmas and Damian or 14 February, Saint Valentine.

You can also change from the agenda view to the monthly view. I prefer the agenda because you can see the saint and place name at the same time.
